Inspiring the next generation of embroiderers

I know I committed myself to a fabric diet this year, but for Christmas I received a generous voucher at a local quilt shop – so that doesn’t count as a purchase, right? 😉 http://www.sewmanystitches.com.au/ Sew Many Stitches in Campbelltown, NSW 2560.

I could not resist, immediately I had visions of a cute little dress for our daughter Miss H, as well as a couple of doll pillows for her and a few friends (yes, Miss B whose mum I think may be reading this, you are getting one of these!). I had some spare time in my lunch break so I cut out the first one together with the hot pink backing and hopefully it will be a quick and easy present to put together and stuff, voila, a little Japanese doll pillow!

I may or may not have also bought some of the other fabrics in the range to make some cutie pie girls’ clothes in the future – who can resist!

I mentioned an embroidery assessment earlier which is due very very soon – well I did start this a few months back, however I have decided that one thing that uninspired me so much with it was the fabric that was supplied in the kit, I really don’t like working with it. So I’ll be raiding my embroidery fabric stash and starting all over again. I’ll keep you posted.
